kneeko

i like the newly 7speed place now even tho i haven't been into their first shop location. this one is easy to get a parking spot, little hidden from kemang's hustleness and i like how they dress up the shop eventho its a small shop.
heavy food, light food, cookies are also served here but as usual, my chosen are the capp and banana bread.

Love the banana bread with i think its a custard or vanilla spread (please correct me) and the taste was just right for my liking. The Cappucinno itself was okay in terms of the form, foam or warmness. its just there was slight sour taste which after i asked they are using bali single origin at the moment i visited them. considering the taste and place i will definitely come back again, eventho kemang is not really my favorite area to be in because of the jam.

from what i've visited, i think this place fit for everyone who does work mobile. cozy place (even tho only 1 ruko width size). i remembered when i was in their ciranjang place, that most visitor are people to chill/chit chat compare to here that when i was here, i saw many people open their laptop or doin some paperwork over coffee and a meal eventho kemang is popular for leisure. for those who smoke, the set up few table outside but still manage to make it nicely instead of just a table and smoking tray. 
now the capp that i had is still on the bold side like i had in ciranjang but already less acidic and found out that i had the single origin rinjani. however the coffee must be taken while still warm if not it will become quite acidic over time. (notes for those who like to take pic first before you drink it). i didn't have their big meal instead i had the cripsy mushroom to snack and good companion if you're having it over work and just chit chat. i know where i have to go if i want a bold coffee.

this shop now expand their business to southern part. they are one of my preferable coffee shop when in western part of jakarta. And in here placed in como park, is easy to reach and parking is not a problem which in kemang could be troublesome. the decor still in line with their initial shop with added neon sign to make it more instagramable. i bet, soon it will be the insta spot. they are just opened less than a week, so the food rack is still a bit empty even tho you can still order heavier food. 
This branch is now concentrate to overseas beans compare to local beans in meruya. they know that kemang's population is more to bold taste compare to the western part. Resulting more body in their coffee which served nicely in a pretty cup and still they prepare iced water to rinse out the after taste. that is if its bothering you. nice to have it close now because i have been more and more rare to the west side.

in the corner of energy building, this place is visible even when you enter the parking lot. and the modern classy feel straight away visible. i remembered it was quite packed even on lunch time full of youngster and soft of socialite gathering.
the menu was variable and i was drawn to the pork belly and avocado salad. it was so tempting just by looking the next table.

and it was. the avocado salad was simple, light, yet tasty. and the pork belly was fragrant and yummy. apart from that, we love the mashed potato from the pork belly. it was just right to accompany the pork. love to eat again soon.

this place is a collaboration between coffee shop and wokaday for food. i think its a good place for quick office break like having a lunch and coffee at the same time. but don't worry if you prefer small bites, they have donut kampung to accompany your coffee. i tried their manual brew (at that time was a complimentary) and capp. the brew was quite strong and acidic which resulting i could only drink it half while the capp i found it wasn't bad. its just there is this hint i didn't like but overall still enjoyable. 
The place itself is not that big, but can still accomodate your party outdoor as well on their patio. 

i think a lot of people mistakenly recognize this shop as a home depot by their name. But if you visit them, its actually a small coffee shop that have an oldies concept and you can see them by their mugs, table set up and they pushing for their batch brew for take away. don't worry, the brew is already set in case you're on the go person. too bad i'm not really a black coffee person so couldn't really try their's. however i like their white. its smooth and balance with nice after taste especially if you combine it is fried banana or their other small bites. feels like in kampung in a good way. sure it will be in my go to cafe list..
